- at the farm level and its immediate surroundings
Praktijkpunt Landbouw Vlaams-Brabant (a research institute in Belgium with a participative research approach) is involved in agroforestry-projects and would like to expand it's knowledge and keep focus on this workfield. We are interested to join forces within this project call to work on an agroforestry topic.
Praktijkpunt Landbouw is a research institute located in Herent, near Brussels (Belgium). Our goal is to facilitate the exchange of expertise between farmers and scientifically-oriented researchers, enabling the practical implementation of innovations. Through our participative research approach, we collaborate closely with farmers in conducting farm trials. Our activities also include organising field demonstrations and interactive learning sessions. To ensure widespread dissemination of knowledge, we employ digital media, newsletters, brochures, articles, demonstrations, networking events and field visits. Our site also serves as an experimental platform where we showcase various agronomic techniques. For example, a small field was reformed to a demonstration agroforestry field.
